Finding Hope and Support in the Dementia Journey: Adoray Hosts Free Caregivers Conference in Menomonie

For anyone who has walked the path of caring for a loved one living with dementia, the journey can feel overwhelming, emotional, and at times—lonely. But you are not alone. Adoray Home Health & Hospice invites caregivers, families, and community members to gather for an afternoon of education, encouragement, and connection at the 2nd Annual Dementia Caregivers Conference on Wednesday, May 13th, from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at Compass IL in Menomonie, WI.

This free event, now in its third year, is part of Adoray’s deep commitment to empowering caregivers and improving the lives of those living with dementia throughout the communities we serve.



A Growing Need for Awareness and Support

Dementia, including Alzheimer's disease, is one of the most significant health challenges facing aging adults today. More than 6 million Americans currently live with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia. By 2050, that number is expected to nearly double.

Behind every person living with dementia is a network of family members, friends, and caregivers who often carry a heavy emotional and physical burden. Many of these caregivers are unpaid family members, spouses, siblings, or adult children, doing their best to provide comfort and dignity while navigating the unfamiliar terrain of a degenerative brain disease.


That’s where education and community make all the difference.

Expert Guidance from Sheri Fairman
Returning for a third year is Sheri Fairman, a Certified Teepa Snow Trainer known for her compassionate, engaging, and deeply informative sessions. Fairman specializes in helping caregivers understand the complex changes that happen in the brain due to dementia and how small adjustments in our approach can make a world of difference.



More Than a Conference—It’s a Community of Care

Whether you’re a spouse, adult child, friend, or professional caregiver, this conference is designed to provide tools you can use right away to make life a little easier for both you and the person you’re caring for. You’ll leave with:

• Practical caregiving techniques
• Greater understanding of dementia
• New ways to improve communication and connection
• Community resources
• A renewed sense of hope


Lunch will be provided, and registration is completely free, thanks to the generous support of Adoray and its community partners. Registration is required.


To register, call Adoray at 715-629-1888 or email a.bettinger@adoray.org by Friday, May 8th.
